Nopi – Soho, London

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Wednesday 16 May 2012

It was a glorious Monday in London and we spent the only clear weather we had outdoors. I gallivanted about Westminster in the morning fending off tourists with unwieldy maps and gargantuan DSLRs. We merrily roamed Kew Gardens in the afternoon, steamed in Victoria era glasshouses and felt the spring blades of grass between our toes. [...]

Momofuku Seiōbo – Sydney, Australia

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 17 January 2012

It’s been nearly two months since our meal at Momofuku Seiōbo. David Chang‘s first restaurant outside of New York City is located in The Star. The owners of the only casino in Sydney spent one billion dollars on the refurbishment over two years. Torrential rain and peak hour traffic had us worried we would be [...]

Chiang’s Gourmet – Roosevelt, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Monday 16 January 2012

I miss Asian food. I still cook stir-fries and curries at home but we’ve rarely eaten Thai, Chinese, Indian or Malaysian, all favourites in multicultural Sydney. I’ve been feeling dejected about having to cross the border to sate my love for these cuisines. With the exception of Din Tai Fung, the American palate for Asian [...]

Bearfoot Bistro – Whistler, British Columbia

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Thursday 29 December 2011

It snowed in Whistler on Christmas Day and I loved it. Snowflakes zigzagged gently from the sky and dusted every surface. I was delighted with my first white Christmas. The powdered slopes were serene and the magic carpet was quiet. We skied in the morning and relaxed in the afternoon. Bearfoot Bistro was recommended by Naomi and was conveniently located [...]

Cactus – South Lake Union, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 06 December 2011

I walk through South Lake Union several times a week. The neighbourhood is busy during the week, especially on the Westlake thoroughfare from Whole Foods to Harrison. I noticed the construction site on the corner of Harrison and Terry many months ago and didn’t know it was Cactus until recently. I love the pink window frames! Next to [...]

Chat Thai – Sydney, Australia

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 22 November 2011

The Boeing Dreamliner, President Obama and Princess Mary all followed us to Australia. We’re enjoying the sunshine, jacarandas in bloom, wearing sunglasses and flip-flops, nostalgic walks, and sentimental meals. Restore, revitalise, rejuvenate. Despite the beauty of the Seattle autumn I’ve had a bout of homesickness and this was a timely trip home. In an effort to adjust to the [...]

Tortilla Jo’s – Anaheim, Calfornia

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Friday 18 November 2011

On our last day in Anaheim, we explored Downtown Disney. Boulevards are lined with palm trees, gardens are groomed and pedestrian paths are flat and clean. Lamp posts are topped with Mickey Mouse figurines. The S shaped block was lively with Disney themed stores, a cinema and several eateries. Speakers throughout the complex played pop music. [...]

SousVide Supreme Demi – salmon with lemon and dill

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 08 November 2011

Disclosure: I received a demo product from Duo PR. This is not a sponsored post. Our kitchen is notoriously gadget free. No blender, no food processor, no stand mixer, no sandwich press, no coffee maker. And for many years, no kettle. A toaster is the only gadget on our counter. I attended the Sharone Hakman [...]

Eataly – Flatiron District, New York

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Friday 23 September 2011

‘Italy is Eataly.’ And Eataly is the size of all five David Jones Foodhalls in one location combined with the absurd Scandinavian navigation of IKEA. I was exploring the Flatiron District after lunch at Shake Shack and I found myself at the entrance of Eataly. I stood on the sidewalk for several minutes, observing the [...]

Shangri-La fishing – Yanuca Island, Fiji

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Friday 22 July 2011

On our last day in Fiji, the gentlemen went fishing. The ladies stayed ashore and breakfasted, had massages, kayaked, swam and packed. They met at the jetty before dawn and motored out to sea. The waters were a little rough but the trawling yielded eleven fish! The first tug on the line was a marlin but unfortunately [...]
